no answer choices....my program thing just tells me to "Type the correct answer rounded to one decimal place, then press Enter"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you allowed to use a calculator?

OpenStudy (acxbox22):

this is just basic trig let x be angle A tan(x)=opposite/adjacent tan(x)=8.2/5.1 tan(x)=1.60784313725\[x=\tan^{-1} 1.60784313725\]

OpenStudy (acxbox22):

use a calculator to solve

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can use SOHCAHTOA

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
